Capillary origami of micro-machined micro-objects: Bi-layer conductive hinges
A. Legrain, J. W. Berenschot, N. R. Tas +1
Recently, we demonstrated controllable 3D self-folding by means of capillary forces of silicon-nitride micro-objects made of rigid plates connected to each other by flexible hinges…
Elastocapillary folding using stop-programmable hinges fabricated by 3D micro-machining
A. Legrain, J. W. Berenschot, N. R. Tas +1
We show elasto-capillary folding of silicon nitride objects with accurate folding angles between flaps of 70.60.1° and demonstrate the feasibility of such accurate micro-assem…
Magnetic Torque of Microfabricated Elements and Magnetotactic Bacteria
Lars Zondervan, Özlem Sardan Sukas, Islam S. M. Khalil +3
We present a thorough theoretical analysis of the magnetic torque on microfabricated elements with dimensions in the range of 100 to 500 μm and magneto-somes of magnetotactic bacte…
